Aiden masters chat the same way new hires do:
by reading documents, practicing replies, and responding to feedback.

Fill Aiden’s Reading List
You’re probably too busy to write content for your chatbot. With Aiden, you won’t need to create new material -- it can work with what you already have! Aiden can work with any text you have, including customer-facing content you’ve already published on your website. We’ll organize these materials into a Knowledge Base that Aiden can use.
Spot-Check Aiden's Work
Ask Aiden questions, and see how it replies! You might be surprised by how much it’s learned. When you’re happy with how it replies to questions, try letting Aiden handle chats. You can check Aiden’s work before and after it goes live, and toggle the bot on or off at any time.
Aiden Loves Feedback
Aiden takes direction well, but doesn’t require babysitting. It learns from mistakes, and defers to instructions from agents who know your customers best. Aiden is wired to do better next time, and (in most cases) it only needs to hear feedback once to change its behavior.

We’ll teach Aiden its Conversation Skills
Olark is always improving how chatbots talk to your customers.
Here are some skills your bot would have out-of-the-box:
Here are some skills your bot would have out-of-the-box:
Friendly Greetings
We’ve taught Aiden that when someone asks it a question it’s polite to say hello, introduce itself, and offer to help. We recommend being transparent that Aiden is a bot, but you can customize your chatbot’s name, avatar, and how it represents your business.
Boundaries
Healthy communication requires setting good boundaries, and sometimes that means not sharing what you know. We’ll help you draw limits around sensitive information or precious contacts, and train Aiden to escalate chats about them to a human.
Human, Please!
Your customers deserve meaningful resolution, not just instant answers. That’s why Aiden is trained to recognize phrases like “talk to person” and ask if the customer would prefer to be transferred to a human for follow-up.

Advanced Integrations
Olark offers a huge library of out-of-the-box integrations, but some organizations are more complex than others.

Conditional Logic
Aiden can answer questions, but it does best with questions where the answers are the same in most situations.
Businesses that have complex organizations, multiple locations, and huge websites with different audiences benefit from logic branches that let each unit dictate its own tools and process.

Routing Rules
In large organizations, it’s important that priority messages get attention from the right person, not just any human.
Olark Pro customers have more flexible options to choose from when they’re deciding how to direct incoming chats across teams, agents, and inboxes.
